Proteus Odeon, is an IP66-rated framing profile moving head with variable CRI LED engine.
Elation has spent several years developing a new CRI technology, combining a blend of high and low CRI LEDs into a single high-density array. The concept, called TruTone, provides both high and low CRI engines in one, adjustable CRI control that allows the user to find the best blend of lighting intensity and colour accuracy.
The variable TruTone system is seamlessly adjustable from CRI 70 to 93, blending smoothly with no switching or stepping. As CRI adapts, the colour temperature remains stable with no visible artefacts in the beam and projected image. With CRI adjustable from a single fixture, not only can Odeon cater to a wide range of applications but designers do not require multiple fixture variants to achieve accurate colour representation.
The Proteus Odeon outputs up to 30,000 lumens from a custom-designed 580W variable CRI bright-white LED engine (6,500K). With a fast zoom range from 5.5° to 50° out of a surprisingly compact fixture design.
The Odeon can play a dual role in a single show, for example as a key light with high CRI in one scene and an effect light with high output in the next. Odeon’s colour quality and quiet operation is perfect for TV and theatre, and its sealed IP65 design ensures long life and clean optics in all sorts of venues, even indoor theatres, cruise ships and other applications where reduced maintenance and long-term performance are crucial.
Designers have access to a FX package that includes 13 rotating and 7 fixed glass gobos across three gobo wheels. Effects can be multiplied via an overlapping 4-facet or linear rotating prism and a 360° bi-directional animation wheel can be engaged. Two frost filters (light and wash) can be applied for an even diffusion of light when designers wish for softer gobo or powerful wash effects. A high-speed iris with variable pulse effects and high-speed electronic shutter and strobe can be engaged for further impression.
The Proteus Odeon also includes an indexable 4-blade framing system with full blackout shutter cuts for full control of the beam shape and projection at any angle. Internal colour, framing, prism, and frost macros have been included to recall commonly used effects. The fixture dims smoothly all the way to zero with smooth 16-bit selectable dimming curves included.
Compact for its class, an IP66 rating and completely sealed optics mean the Odeon is suited for outdoor environments. Its IP-rated properties are also beneficial in dirty or humid indoor settings where dust, grit and moisture can wreak havoc on lighting gear.
